I became interested in a VW Tiguan and intended to purchase from my local well respected VW dealer.

Unfortunately, the particular trim I sought was unavailable. The deal offered to me would be less favorable as the unit would have to be obtained from another VW dealership.

So I decided to see if I could find the trim I wanted by searching inventories at other VW dealerships.

By luck I checked Sheehy VW IN Fairfield VA and was stunned by the most generous dealer discount available literally anywhere.

I contacted Trisha who is responsible for Sheehy s Internet sales. After a brief very professional chat with Trisha I was introduced to John, GM of Sheehy.

John,as Trisha, offered black and white info regarding the sale.

I received a deal workup from Tricia and all was in order and exactly as presented in the previous conversations.

I accepted the offer and Kelly, finance manager, made the paperwork and documentation easy.

Next day I received a call that the vehicle I thought I purchased had already been purchased by another the same day - but earlier.

Knew all of this was too good to be true and was saying good-bye. But I was told it wasn t over.

Sheehy found an equivalent unit at another VW dealer at the same price. Mere changes in the paperwork for the VIN, color and interior and the purchase was done.

Sheehy could have increased the price as the vehicle came from another dealer but did not. Sheehy simply ensured it did what was necessary to sell me a vehicle.

I live in the greater New Orleans area and have recommended to my friends neighbors coworkers and acquaintances that any of the Sheehy dealerships may provide a deal better than can be found locally, as well as the Houston, Dallas and other markets.

Unlike most practices by owners of dealerships - instead of pocketing incentives/bonuses awarded for meeting quotas or other metrics, Sheehy pushes the dollars into generous discounts to we the consumers.

So should you be reading this review and contemplating a VW, you must call Tricia, John and Kelly.

Or any Sheehy dealership

Also know that Sheehy is now holding its 20+annual 8000. Sheehy dealerships are focused to moving 8,000 vehicles through July 4th. If you re looking for a car, give Sheehy an opportunity.
